the pats aren't gonna blow Miami out.. that i can assure you.. granted I am a dolphins fan so take this post with a grain of bias lol... if i am wrong you all can mix crow in with my NTBM protein bars, i need the extra carbs feed me! it might come down to the last drive of the game or be a 4 or 7 point win for the pats, but definately no blowout this time. if it comes down to the final drive i shutter at that thought cause brady > henne or any other active QB by a mile in a 2 min offense.

let me tell you why i feel this way

1. Henne showed leadership in the offseason for the first time and the players finally respect him enough to vote him captain.. this is it for him.. his 3rd year starting, its do or die. if he sucks this year I am off the bandwagon for good
2. reggie bush brings them a threat in the short passing game
3. henne and marshall clicked very well in the preseason, better than i've ever seen them
4. marshall is 100% healthy this year and he looks like a beast.
5. Miami's D is better than anyone thinks and its better this year.. they were #5 last year. it was their O that stunk. and brady has a worst record vs. miami then any other team.
6. their new OC is actually gone use their weapons instead of running it for 2 yards, they had Henning last year who was a dinosaur and their O was pathetic and predictable!
7. the Pats Oline is gonna get destroyed by Miami's Dline. and brady is gonna have people in his face all game.

these are the 7 keys. lets see how wrong I am tonight so i can be force fed crow protein bars
